Hi all
Well ive been on this forum for around 12 months and thought it was about time i did a build thread!
In december last year the wife and i decided it was time to upgrade our 4wd to something a bit newer and cheaper to run!
We were driving a 1996 NJ mitsubishi pajero GLS and she was a great reliable old bus but after i did a trip to the red centre and back i realised that her days were numbered as a long distance tourer.
So after setting some guidlines as to what we wanted we settled on the Nissan Navara D22, mainly for the fuel economy, deisel engine and the fact that i wanted a ute again!
It wasnt long before i came accross one that ticked more boxes, steel winch bar! ARB Canopy, Tinted windows and Low kms!
This was her at the car yard!
The plan is to set her up as a Tourer that can also handle some more challenging tracks when i feel the need.
So as soon as she was in the driveway the modifications started!
I installed a few of the bits that i kept off the pajero
Lightforce Genesis spotties
GME UHF radio and aeriel
I also installed a new JVC Stereo with a sub (mounted behind the rear seat) running the front splits hidden in the original door trims, also the stereo has a blutooth kit.
